The thesis consists of building vehicle models for lateral dynamics that provide accurate results, while being simple enough to highlight clear relationships between vehicle properties and handling behaviours. The approach that characterizes the present work is built on the foundations provided by the bicycle, or single-track, model (STM). LÄS MER

Advancements in vehicle development has made motion-based driving simulators an impor- tant and cost-e↵ective tool when validating and designing vehicles. Although one-to-one rendition of the real world is not a possibility due to hard limitations set by the rig, motion cueing algorithms intend to improve the perception of reality by mimicking the movements of a real vehicle into the movement of a motion platform.

Background: The middle managers’ managerial work is characterised by the absence of clarityand structure around the work practice and implies excessive responsibility on the individual toorganise the work. Self-leadership is a tool for individuals to become more effective in their work and can provide middle managers with guidance in their unstructured work. LÄS MER

Oryx Simulations produce simulators for mining and forestry machinery used for educational and promotional purposes. The simulators use motion platforms to reflect how the vehicle moves within the simulator. This platform tilts and accelerates the driver in order to enhance the experience. LÄS MER

One of the major challenges for helicopter pilots are low level flights and landings in degraded visual environments (DVE). Without proper assistance systems, the pilots are prone to lose their situational awareness (SA) when fog, heavy precipitation, limited sunlight and stirred-up sand or snow degrades their view.
